Description of the Hob

INSTALLATION

Any gas installation must be carried out by a qualified installer,

and in accordance with existing rules and regulations.

The relevant instructions are to be found in the second section of

this manual.

Please, ensure that, once the hob is installed, it is easily accessible

for the engineer in the event of a breakdown.

WHEN THE HOB IS FIRST INSTALLED

Once the hob has been installed, it is important to remove any

protective materials, which were put on in the factory.

electrolux 33

Hob burners control knobs

The symbols on the knobs mean that :

there is no gas supply

there is maximum gas supply

there is minimum gas supply

Lighting the burners

For easier lighting, proceed before putting a pan on the pan

support.

To light a burner, turn the relevant knob anticlockwise to maximum

position (

)and push down the knob to ignite.

After lighting the flame, keep the knob pushed

down for about 5 seconds. This will allow

the "thermocouple" to be heated and the

safety device to be switched off, otherwise

the gas supply would be interrupted. Then,

check the flame is regular and adjust it as

required. If you cannot light the flame even

after several attempts, check the "cap" is in

the correct position.

If you cannot light the flame even after

several attempts, check the "cap" (lett. A)

and the "crown" (lett. B) are in the correct

position.

To put the flame out, turn the knob to the

symbol

In the absence of electricity, ignition can

occur without the electrical device; in this case approach the

burner with a flame, push the relevant knob down and turn it anti-

clockwise until it reaches the "maximum" position.

B - Burner crown

C - Ignition electrode

D - Thermocouple

34 electrolux

As soon as a liquid starts boiling, turn down the flame so that it will

barely keep the liquid simmering.

If you use a saucepan which is smaller than the recommended size,

the flame will spread beyond the bottom of the vessel, causing the

handle to overheat.

Take care when frying food in hot oil or fat, as the overheated

splashes could easily ignite.

If the control knobs become difficult to turn, please contact your local

Service Force Centre.

Burner minimum maximum

diameter diameter

Large (rapid) 160 mm. 240 mm.

Medium (semi-rapid) 120 mm. 220 mm.

Small (Auxiliary) 80 mm. 160 mm.

To ensure maximum burner efficiency, you should only use pots and pans

with a flat bottom fitting the size of the burner used (see table).

electrolux 35

Before any maintenance or cleaning can be carried out, you must

DISCONNECT the hob from the electricity supply.

The hob is best cleaned whilst it is still warm, as spillage can be

removed more easily than if it is left to cool.

The hob top

Clean the hob while it is still warm.

Never use aggressive or abrasive agents, such as oven sprays, stain or

rust removers, scouring powders, or sponges with an abrasive effect.

Special cleaning agents and ceramic hob scrapers are available from

department stores.

Slight, non-burnt soilage can be wiped off with a damp cloth. Burnt

soilage has to be removed with a scraper. Afterwards wipe off the

ceramic hob with a damp cloth.

Light metallic stains (aluminium residues) can be removed from the

cooking zone with a ceramic hob cleaning agent such as Vitroclen when

cool.

Sugar solutions, food stuffs with a high sugar content must be removed

immediately with a scraper. If this type of soilage is not removed

immediately it can cause irreparable damage to the ceramic surface.

When the surface has cooled wipe over with a damp cloth and Vitroclen.

Before using any detergent or cleaning agent on the ceramic top, ensure

they are recommended by the manufacturer for use on ceramic hobs.

Do not apply any cleaning agents to hot cooking zones. Ensure any

residues are wiped off before the cooking zones are used again.

If scratches or cracks are noticed, disconnect the appliance

from the electrical supply to avoid the risk of electric shock

and call your nearest Service Force Centre.

Keep all objects and materials which can melt away from the cooking

surface, e.g. plastics, aluminium foil.

Care should be taken when preparing food or drinks containing sugar. If

anything of this nature accidentally comes into contact with the ceramic

surface it must be scraped off immediately while stlll hot and wiped

away to avoid damage to the surface.

Maintenance and Cleaning

36 electrolux

The pan supports

The pan supports can be removed to easily clean the hob. After cleaning

the hob, make sure the pan supports are correctly positioned.In order to

properly place the pan supports, make sure that the longest arm of the

pan support is positioned in correspondance with the hole placed at the

base of the burner as shown in the picture.

This way, the pan support will be

stable and fixed (see picture).

Pay attention when replacing

the pan supports in order to

avoid scratching the glass

hob top.

If washing the pan supports by hand,

take care when drying them as the

enamelling process occasionally

leaves rough edges. If necessary,

remove stubborn stains using a pa-

ste cleaner.

The burners

The burner caps and crowns can be removed for cleaning.

Wash the burners taps and crowns using hot soapy water, and remove

marks with a mild paste cleaner. A well moistened soap impregnated

steel wool pad can be used with caution, if the marks are particularly

difficult to remove.

After cleaning, be sure to wipe dry with a soft cloth.

Ignition electrode

The electric ignition is obtained through a ceramic "electrode" and a

metal electrode . Keep these components well clean, to avoid difficult

lighting, and check that the burner crown holes are not obstructed.

Periodic maintenance

Periodically ask your local Service Centre to check the conditions of the

gas supply pipe and the pressure adjuster, if fitted.

electrolux 37

Something Not Working?

If the hob is not working correctly, please carry out the following

checks before contacting your local Service Force Centre.

SYMPTOM

# There is no spark when

lighting the gas.

# The gas ring burns unevenly.

SOLUTION

$ Check that the unit is plugged in

and the electrical supply is

switched on

$ Check that the RCCB has not

tripped (if fitted)

$ Check the mains fuse has not

blown

$ Check the burner cap and crown

have been replaced correctly,

e.g. after cleaning.

$ Check the main jet is not blocked

and the burner crown is clear of

food particles.

$ Check the burner cap and crown

have been replaced correctly,

e.g. after cleaning.

If after all these checks, your hob still does not operate correctly, contact

your local Service Force Centre.

• The following instructions about installation and maintenance must be

carried out by qualified personnel in compliance with the regulation in

force. The regulation to be applied for this type of installation is NBN D

5I.003 : "Installations functioning with combustible gas lighter than air".

• The side walls of the unit in which the hob is going to be installed, must

not exceed the height of the working top.

• Avoid installing the appliance in the proximity of inflammable materials

(e.g. curtains, tea towels etc.).

• The appliance must be electrically disconnected before all interventions.

If any electric supply to the appliance is required to carry out the work,

ensure all the necessary precautions are followed.

Gas connection

It is indispensible that the connection to the gas mains are carried out by means of

an AGB tap. Choose fixed connections or use a flexible pipe in AGB (stainless steel).

If using flexible metallic pipes, be careful they do not come in contact with mobile parts

or they are not squeezed. Use the same attention when the hob is combinated with

an oven.

This hob can be operated by Slochteren gas (G25) with a nominal pressure of 25 mbar

or by natural gas with nominal pressure of 20 mbar. No regulation is required for use

by these two types of gas. Before fitting the appliance ensure that the installation has

the correct voltage for the appliance. At full capacity, the drop in pressure

must not exceed 5%. Such a drop in pressure

is caused by the following parameters:

- maximum capacity of meter;

- diameter and lenght of the tube in front and

behind the meter;

- section of transit of variuos tubes positioned

on the circuit;

- diameter of eventual connections.

IMPORTANT - To ensure a correct operation,

a saving of energy and the long-life of the

appliance, the voltage pressure of the appliance

must correspond to the recommended values.

The adjustable connection is fixed to the

comprehensive ramp by means of a threaded

nut G 1/2".

All the components shown in the diagram

have already been assembled in the factory.

The appliance, before leaving the factory, has been tested in order to give you the

best results.

Injectors replacement

• Remove the pan supports.

• Remove the burner's caps and

crowns.

• With a socket spanner 7 unscrew

and remove the injectors, and replace

them with the ones required for the

type of gas in use.

• Reassemble the parts, following the

same procedure backwards.

• Replace the rating label (placed near

the gas supply pipe) with the relevant

one for the new type of gas supply.

You can find this label in the package

of the injectors supplied with the

appliance.

Should the feeding gas pressure be

different or variable compared with the

required pressure, an appropriate

pressure adjuster must be fitted on the

gas supply pipe, in compliance with the

rules in force.

Adjustment of minimum level

To adjust the minimum level of the

burners, proceed as follows:

• Light the burner.

• Turn the knob on the minimum position.

• Remove the knob.

• With a thin screwdriver, adjust the by-pass screw. If changing from natural

gas to liquid gas, completely tighten clockwise the screw, until a small regular

flame is obtained. If changing from liquid gas to natural gas unscrew about

1/4 turn the by-pass screw, until a small regular flame is obtained.

• Finally check the flame does not go out when quickly turning the knob from

the maximum position to the minimum position.

This procedure can easily be carried out, anyhow the hob has been positioned

or built in the working top.

Adaptation to different types of gas

IMPORTANT - When the final connection has been made, it is

essential that a thorough leak test is carried out on the hob and

installation. Use some soapy water, never a flame.

42 electrolux

Electrical connections

The appliance is designed to be connected to 230 V monophase

electricity supply.

The connection must be carried out in compliance with the laws and

regulations in force.

Before the appliance is connected:

1) check that the main fuse and the domestic installation can support the

load (see the rating label);

2) check that the power supply is properly earthed in compliance with the

current rules;

3) check the socket or the double pole switch used for the electrical

connection can be easily reached with the appliance built in the forniture

unit.

The appliance is supplied with a connection cable. This has to be provided

with a proper plug, able to support the load marked on the identification

plate. The plug has to be fitted in a proper socket.

If connecting the appliance directly to the electric system, it is necessary

that you install a double pole switch between the appliance and the

electricity supply, with a minimum gap of 3 mm. between the switch

contacts and of a type suitable for the required load in compliance with the

current rules.

The connection cable has to be placed in order that, in each part, it cannot

reach a temperature higher than 90°C.

The brown coloured phase cable (fitted in the terminal block contact

marked with "L") must always be connected to the network phase

Replacement of the voltage cable

The replacement of electric cable

must be carried out exclusively by

the service force centre or by

personnel with similar

competencies, according to the

current regulations in force.

The connection of the voltage cable to the

appliance's terminal block is of type "Y". This

means that its replacement requires the

specific equipment of a technician. In this case,

only cable type H05V2V2-F T90 must be

used. The cable section must be suitable to

the voltage and the working temperature. The

yellow/green earth wire must be

approximately 2 cm. longer than the phase wires.
